The kind of genetic variation in happy-face spiders that Dr, Gillespie was studying is called Polymorphism <span>which includes ecology, morphology and the behavior of the happy-face spiders. Polymorphism is a discontinuous genetic variation that results in the occurrence of several different forms or types of individuals among the members of a single species. The happy-face spider exhibits an array of color patterns on the back of its abdomen, sometimes resembles a smiling face. Despite the variation in colors, all of the happy-face spider; have the same anatomical features, interact in the same ways with their environments and with other organisms, they share the same reproductive behaviors and methods of catching insect prey and also freely mate with one another. The study of protein by scientists in the happy-face spiders revealed that different islands had very different levels of variation which means the dispersal between the island is not very common. </span>

denis23 [38]

Answer:

The plant on the left does not accumulate significant photochlorophyll or carotenoids, so it will become very pale on the shoot tip, while the plant on the right will continue to grow upward as auxin is uniformly distributed around the tip of the right plant.

Explanation:

Phototropism is the orientation of a plant in response to light, either towards the source of light or away from light. Positive phototropism is growth towards light, while negative phototropism is away from light.

Auxin are substances that promote and regulate the growth and development of plants. Auxin escapes light making the area in the shade elongate more so the plant tip moves towards the light.
